Between the Lines

0 posted 2003-04-07 09:57 AM



Awaking to the whiteness, blinding
but a soothing tickling sound
as it touches the rooftop
outside my window.

Winter's hold, fearful of letting go
reminding me how I am the same way,
not quite ready yet for the freshness
of a new season in my life.

Bruised a bit by nature's ills,
I am moving about sluggish at first,
but in time, consistency and speed
will take on a life of their own,
and I will be bending the rules,
once again, to make them mine.

I am peeking around the corners,
spying, to catch that first glimmer of hope
wanting to feel the cool on the heat of my thoughts,
waiting for the right words to enter,
and color my world in real.

M

Only when we cannot go to corners are we bereft of hope.  This is an elegant expression of first hope.  KJ

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light
